Hello all -

I tries to look through the archives, but couldn't find anything related to
what I need. We use wget for mirroring a dynamically generated site and it
work very very cool :)

Many of the pages we download contain queries, so if a URL looks like :

http://somehost/page.html?a=v1&b=v2, then the saved url will look like :

somehost/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&b=v2 (we always use @ instead of ? when saving the
queries)

Now if one would like to serve this saved file as a page, they'll have to
change the default content type for the server from text/plain to text/html
otherwise the http headers are not set correctly.

The -E option of wget solves this, because it causes wget to add ".html" to
the end of the saved file:

somehost/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&b=v2.html

Is there any easy way for removing the file extention when using -E ? So that
the saved file would look like :

somehost/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&b=v2.html

I guess I can try to work on a patch - unless this has already been developed.

Many thanks for your help.

Best regards,
Petar Karafezov
